i'm testing with Pokemon FIreRed (also tried with Metroid Zero Mission). after i create a save file and close the emulator, it takes me back to VHBL, as expected. when i reboot the emulator and try loading the game again, it crashes on loading rom, locking up for about half a minute before giving me a crash error

Just move the gpsp folder from ux0:pspemu/PSP/VHBL/gPSP to ux0:pspemu/ PSP/GAME/gPSP.

Just move the gpsp folder from ux0:pspemu/PSP/VHBL/gPSP to ux0:pspemu/ PSP/GAME/gPSP.

that just removes the emulator from vhbl's menu, making it so i can't even load it up

Edit: wait, i see i can change directories in VHBL... gonna move them back

Edit2: now it's spitting out a "font init error!!" then crashes back to vhbl

Edit3: ok, closing VHBL and restarting it got it to load up the emu. going between vhbl and emu crashed it, but restarting fixed. thanks for the help

One more thing:
gPSP menu -> misc. Change Update SRAM to Automatic. And always exit using the "Exit Emulator" option.

Yaaas! I finally got mine working. I downloaded hyperxunda's (thank you :3 ) GPSP2 folder. I installed it and moved it to the /PSP/GAME. I was having the same problem as you when I was trying to load my leaf green save file. If you are having the same problem, you should give this a try.
